Line 40 ⟶ 41:
** Satan's plots involve doing something for a stupid reason or stalking Arle.
** Ekoro is very goofy, {{spoiler|but he's a ''huge'' threat}}.
* [[Anvil on Head]]: Amitie once dropped a huge cooking pot on Arle's head in ''Puyo
** A 24-ton weight drops on the Frankensteins father when large amounts of nuisance puyo fall on his field.
* [[Arc Number]]: 24, a Japanese ''goroawase'' pun on "Puyo". ''Puyo
* [[Area 51]]: Is visited in ''Puyo Puyo 7''.
* [[Aren't You Going to Ravish Me?|Aren't You Going To Defeat Me?]]: Asks {{spoiler|Strange Klug when Raffine and Sig take two of the items he had and leave him in Klug's body}}.
* [[Badass Adorable]]: Arle and Carbuncle. Almost everyone in ''Puyo Puyo Fever'' counts as well just because of the art style.
* [[Bad Powers, Good People]] and [[Bad Powers, Bad People|Bad People]]: Despite being half-demon, Sig doesn't care about it and seems to care only about his friends and bugs. It should be noted that, besides Akuma, most demons and monsters before are
* [[Bare Your Midriff]]: Rulue shows off hers in ''Puyo Puyo~n''.▼
▲* [[Bad Powers, Good People]] and [[Bad Powers, Bad People|Bad People]]: Despite being half-demon, Sig doesn't care about it and seems to care only about his friends and bugs. It should be noted that, besides Akuma, most demons and monsters before are protrayed as [[Jerkass|Jerkasses]] or being [[Affably Evil]], as well as Sig's remains being part of {{spoiler|the demon within's Klug's book's orignal body. There's an unknown, but possibly good, reason that the demon was sealed away in the first place, something nobody even did to any previous demon. When the demon posses Klug, he intends to wound or likely ''kill'' Sig to get his remains}}.
▲* [[Bare Your Midriff]]: Rulue shows off hers in ''~n''.
* [[Battle Butler]]: Butler for The Prince of the Oceans. Execpt, he doesn't really fight.
* [[Be Careful What You Say]]: Because it ties into the trope below.
* [[Be Careful What You Wish For]]: In ''Puyo Puyo! 15th Anniversary'', the story mode has your chosen character playing through a Puyo tournament, and the prize is a medal that will grant one wish.
** Ms. Accord's wish [[
** Akuma wished for no demons to be able to enter the town. While he is a demon himself, [[Exact Words|the wish only stopped demons from ''entering'', so he's just fine]].
** Amitie wished to be a great spellcaster. She gets nothing, on the reasoning that she's already a great spellcaster, which she feels is a cop-out.
** Arle wished to be able to travel freely between the two worlds. She got it, no strings attached.
** Baldanders was ordered by Feli to wish for her and Lemres to be happy together. Ms. Accord informs him that he could only wish for one of them to be happy. [[
** Dongurigaeru wished for a pond in the forest
** Feli wished for Lemres not to grow old without her. She got that, but then Ms. Accord revealed that everyone was using anti-aging spells anyway, and Feli would have been better served wishing a [[Plot-Relevant Age-Up]] on herself. Feli was ''not'' happy.
** Klug wished for his success to get a 16-page spread in the local mages' magazine. Ms. Accord pointed out that this was dependent on him being successful in the first place, which he had completely failed to wish for.
** Lemres wished for the beach to turn into candy, the sea to turn into jelly, the sand into cocoa powder with powdered sugar and skim milk, the pebbles into chocolates, and the shells into candy. ''He gets it''.
** Nasu Grave wished to be taller. No, wait, he wants to not wear spectacles. No, wait, he wants to not be an eggplant. The medal heard three wishes when it could only grant one, so it didn't grant any.
** Ocean Prince wished for all his subjects to be his servants with free food and naps. Ms. Accord informed him that he could only get one of those (servitude, food, or naps), and asked him to choose, but he ran off without realizing his wish hadn't been granted yet.
** Onion Pixy wished to be with Onionette forever.
** Oshare Bones wished to meet "that person" (his lover?) again "someday". Popoi points out that this is a poor choice of words, as it doesn't specify an actual date. Even so, they are now guaranteed to meet again... eventually...
** Raffine wished to be more beautiful. The medal did nothing, which Ms. Accord claimed was because it believed Raffine was already the most beautiful. Raffine accepted this explanation happily, but after she ran off, Popoi suggested that maybe the medal just couldn't do that.
** Rider was going to wish to get rid of her horns, but after meeting Satan, she grew to appreciate them. Since she didn't have a backup wish, she wished for world peace. Ms. Accord said it would be granted, but we don't ever actually see it. It would make ''Puyo Puyo 7'''s {{spoiler|[[The End of the World as We Know It]] plot}} impossible, but nothing in ''Puyo Puyo! 15th Anniversary'' is treated as canon anyway.
** Rulue was going to wish to be Satan's wife, but that wouldn't stop him from going after Arle. She was going to wish for Arle to be taken out of the picture, but
** Satan was going to wish for a honeymoon under the stars with Arle, but first he felt he had to chew out Ms. Accord over her students' disrespectful behavior toward him. The medal heard him say he ought to teach them manners and granted ''that'' wish.
** Schezo wished for everyone to stop calling him a pervert. It was granted, but everyone called him a weirdo instead.
Line 75:
** Zoh Daimaoh wished to be a king who would bring peace in a rich country, in a future with hope. He got that... as far as anyone knows.
*** To sum up, 22 wishes were made in total, 8 turned out fine, 4 were corrupted by poor phrasing, 4 were flat-out not granted, 2 were ruined by thinking out loud, 2 were caught on [[Moving the Goalposts|a one-wish technicality]], Nasu Grave's was not granted due to thinking aloud ''and '' the one-wish technicality, and we never learn Ms. Accord's. If we throw out Ms. Accord's wish, that's a 62% failure rate.
* [[Berserk Button]]: Schezo really wants everyone to stop labeling him a pervert. Also, don't taunt him about not having a healthy image.
** Panotty doesn't like it when people ignore or don't appreciate his music.
* [[Big Bad]]: Varies per game. After the original series, the villains got less effective.
** Most, if not all, of the games before ''Puyo Puyo Fever'' had Satan as the final boss. If he wasn't, it was likely due to someone overshadowing him (take Doppleganger Arle).
** ''Puyo Puyo Fever'' technically had Popoi, a talking cat-puppet-shadow.
** ''Puyo Puyo Fever 2'' had the very popular Strange Klug
** ''Puyo Puyo! 15th Anniversary'' and ''Puyo Puyo!! 20th Anniversary'' don't have a villain to speak of.
** ''Puyo Puyo 7'' had an effective villain in Ekoro.
* [[Bishonen]]: Satan, Schezo and Incubus among others.
* [[Biting the Handkerchief]]: Raffine
* [[Blinding Bangs]]: Maguro's
* [[Blush Sticker]]: Appears more often on more characters than you think.
* [[Bonus Boss]]: Masked Satan in ''Puyo Puyo Tsu'' and Carbuncle in ''Puyo Puyo Fever''.
* [[But Your Wings Are Beautiful]]: Rider eventually appreciates her horns after meeting Satan.
* [[Calling Your Attacks]]: Actually useful in competitive play, since it gives you an idea of how big your opponent's chain is (and yours too) and how close it is to finishing.
* [[Camp Gay]]: Oshare Bones. There's aalso the ''Madou Monogatari''-exclusive [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin|Gay]].
* [[Canon Foreigner]]: Characters before the fever series come from ''Madou Monogatari''.
* [[Caramelldansen Vid]]: You will need to look through Nico Nico Douga
* [[Cats Are Mean]]: Popoi.
* [[Circus of Fear]]: Minus the fear. Except the [[Big Bad]] from ''Puyo Puyo~n'' wants to replace Arle from reality.
* [[Color-Coded for Your Convenience]]: The Puyo, natch.
* [[Cute Monster Girl]]: YMMV on Draco, Harpy, Seriri, the Banshee Trio and so on.
Line 102 ⟶ 100:
* [[Dark Action Girl]]: Rulue.
* [[Deadpan Snarker]]: Ringo.
* [[Defeat Means Friendship]]: Somewhat
* [[Dem Bones]]: Oshare Bones and Skele-T.
* [[Demonic Possession]]: Well, what did you ''think'' was going to happen when you carry around a possessed book? Some people just have to learn the hard way.
Line 110 ⟶ 108:
* [[Detached Sleeves]]: Raffine in Deka mode.
* [[Difficulty Spike]]: Frustratingly common in many of the installments. The first arcade game is already blisteringly fast by the fourth level. The [[Dolled-Up Installment|dolled up installments]] [[Difficulty by Region|tone it down]] somewhat, though.
** One such spike accompanies Klug's transformation into Strange Klug. Klug himself was already [[Nintendo Hard|pretty high-difficulty]] - Strange Klug just kicks it [[Up to Eleven|up a notch]].
** HaraHara courses aren't called "hard" for nothing.
* [[Dolled-Up Installment]]: ''[[Kirby]]'s Avalanche'', ''[[Dr. Robotniks Mean Bean Machine]]'' and... ''[[The Lion King|Timon and Pumbaa's]] Bug Drop''?
* [[Doppelganger]]: Doppelganger Arle from ''Puyo Puyo~n'' as well as Doppelganger Schezo from ''Waku Waku Puyo Puyo Dungeon''.
* [[Dreadful Musician]]: Harpy, oh so much. She turned the mermaid into one, too.
* [[Dub Name Change]]: All over the place in the bootleg English translation of the first game. Arle is called Silvana, [http://puyonexus.net/wiki/Nasu_Grave Nasu Grave] is called Blue Ghost (despite being neither), and [[Bowdlerise|Satan is called Dark Prince]]. That last one was repeated in ''Puyo Pop'' for the [[Game Boy Advance]], and is the only ''official'' [[Dub Name Change]] in the entire series.
* [[Dumb Blonde]]: Amitie.
Line 121 ⟶ 119:
* [[Empathy Pet]]: Popoi, when Ms. Accord has him.
* [[Everything's Better with Spinning]]: The animations. Right now, the sprites have animated limbs.
** And with ''Puyo Puyo!! 20th Anniversary'' out, we have fully animated sprites!
* [[Evil Costume Switch]]: Well, Strange Klug doesn't have a costume, per say; it's just Klug's outfit dyed red with a cape.
** In ''Puyo Puyo 7'', Arle changes her costume from the school uniform and a pink skirt to a black and blue robe {{spoiler|when possesed by Ekoro}}.
* [[Evil Laugh]]: (Un?)Surprisingly, Klug.
** [[Evil Is Hammy]]: Almost all of the villains, past and present, have an evil laugh somewhere in their combos or shout into their mic.
* [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin]]: Many, ''many'' examples, always in names. The aforementioned [[Cute Witch|Witch]] is a start.
* [[Excuse Plot]]: ''Puyo Puyo 7'' has something along the lines of
** Most of the plots are excuses for the ''Puyo Pop Fever'' series, as they're all done to play the named game; ''Puyo Puyo Fever 1'' has finding Accord's cane (which no explanation why and how she lost a ''flying'' wand), ''Puyo Puyo Fever 2'' has little to no plot, ''
* [[Expressive Hair]]: Ringo.
** [[Expressive Accessory]]: Strange Klug has two
* [[Eyes Always Shut]]: Ms. Accord and Lemres.
* [[Eyes of Gold]]: Arle.
** [[Brown Eyes]]: Before ''Puyo Puyo Fever'' ever existed.
* [[Falling Blocks]]: The blocks are called Puyo.
* [[Family Business]]: Sasaki's Fishmonger, Andou's Greengroceries
Line 140 ⟶ 138:
* [[Fire, Ice, Lightning]]: Arle and Amitie use these three elements as their major spells (Fire, Ice Storm, Thunder Bolt). Rider uses lightning for one of her spells, and Schezo uses lightning for almost all of his spells.
** [[Abnormal Ammo|Abnormal Spells]]: However, Klug and Popoi use the names of objects in the sky, Ms. Accord uses music notes and writes on her chalkboard for animations, and Raffine, Sig and Rulue use [[I Know Kung Fu|martial arts]] with magic. And this is just to name a few.
* [[For the Evulz]]: Ekoro wants to bury <s>the world</s> ''[[Omnicidal Maniac|all existence]]'' under Puyo. How fun that must be...
* [[Freaky Fashion, Mild Mind]]: Akuma seems mean, but he helps Sig (sorta) in ''Puyo Puyo Fever 2''. Sig himself is half-demon, but doesn't harm anyone.▼
▲* [[Freaky Fashion, Mild Mind]]: Akuma seems mean, but he helps Sig (sorta) in ''Fever 2''. Sig himself is half-demon, but doesn't harm anyone.
* [[Frogs and Toads]]: Nohoho and Dongurigaeru are frogs.
* [[Game Mod]]: Making your own characters is popular
* [[Genius Ditz]]: Amitie. Being one of the heroes, she beats everyone else at puyo in the stories.
* [[Giant Space Flea From Nowhere]]: Carbuncle, as the [[True Final Boss]] of the first ''Puyo Puyo Fever'' game.
** After the [[Tournament Arc]] that was ''Puyo Puyo! 15th Anniversary'', the next game would naturally have {{spoiler|a storyline that has the fate of the universe in the balance}} as the next game!
** Played with for Strange Klug. If you play Raffine's or Sig's HaraHara courses
* [[Giggling Villain]]: Dark Arle in ''Puyo Puyo 7''.
* [[Girlish Pigtails]]: Ringo
* [[Good Is Dumb]]: Amitie should start carrying around a dictionary...
* [[Good Is Not Nice]]: Raffine and Klug, despite being heroes, are
* [[Gosh Dang It to Heck]]: Every now and then...
* [[Gratuitous English]]: A good amount of the [[Calling Your Attacks|called attacks]] use this
* [[Harmless Villain]]: For someone named Satan, he usually has different plans than being evil. If he ''is'' doing something "evil", the choice he has in mind [[Poke the Poodle|isn't]].
** Story-wise
* [[Henshin Hero]]: ''Puyo Puyo 7''
* [[Honest Axe]]: Played with before battling Popoi in ''Puyo Puyo Fever'' for Amitie's course.
* [[Horny Devils]]: Incubus. Gee, [[Sarcasm Mode|I do wonder why]] that's his name! Not that any sex is mentioned, though.
* [[Humanity Ensues]]: Ocean Prince and Ekoro.{{context}}
* [[Hyperspace Mallet]]: Ms. Accord has one.
* [[Idiot Hair]]: A few characters. Sig has two
* [[Incredibly Lame Pun]]:
{{quote|Skeleton T(ea) Trio: "It's 'T' time!"
Ringo: "That's just lame!"}}
* [[Innocent Innuendo]]: When Schezo says "Be my desire!",
* [[Insufferable Genius]]: Klug. While he comes off annoying, he does knows information to advance the plot, and even explains what's going on during ''7''. This "genius", however, is the exact same cause for him getting possessed over and over again.
* [[Instant Runes]]: Some attacks, but then again, these kids use magic.
* [[Inventory Management Puzzle]]: In ''Puyo Puyo Fever 2'', you can carry up to [[Arc
* [[It Makes Just As Much Sense in Context]]: Oh, boy... ''Puyo Puyo SUN'', most of the plots, the reasons to fight, and Klug's... [[Does This Remind You of Anything?|"magic magazine"
{{quote|'''Amitie:''' I never knew that you read this kind of book. ''(blushes)'' Gee...
'''Klug:''' What, no! That's the ''wrong page''!}}
* [[I Was Quite a Looker]]: It was inevitable, but Oshare Bones gets a couple lines like this in ''Puyo Puyo! 15th Anniversary''.
* [[I Will Wait for You]]: Oshare's backstory. {{spoiler|He's waiting for the day he meets his former love.}}
* [[Jerkass]]: A lot of characters. Raffine takes the cake though, but Klug's attempting to beat her.
* [[Kawaisa]]: The art style from ''Puyo Puyo Fever'' and on.
* [[Kick Chick]]: Raffine and Rulue.
* [[Kid Hero]]: Arle a couple times, especially in ''Madou Monogatari''
* [[Killer Rabbit]]: Carbuncle in at least one of the spinoff RPGs has a super powerful random gem laser attack, which is carried over into ''Puyo Puyo Fever'' and beyond.
** He's also the ''hardest'' boss in ''Puyo Puyo Fever''.
* [[Large Ham]]: The higher the combo goes, the louder the character can get
* [[Leitmotif]]: In ''Puyo Puyo! 15th Anniversary'', every character as their own theme. Bosses also have their own theme used exclusively when you fight them in story mode.
* [[Lighter and Softer]]: Considering that ''Madou Monogatari'' had
* [[Limit Break]]: ''
** ''Puyo Puyo 7''
* [[Little Miss Badass]]: Feli, Yu, Rider (if a human plays her) and so on.
* [[Loads and Loads of Characters]]: Just
** So far, only eight of the original characters show up in the Fever Series. They cut the cast into fourths doing so.
* [[Love Dodecahedron]]: Minotaurus wants Rulue, who wants Satan, who wants Arle, and Arle isn't interested. Most fans add another line by making Arle interested in Schezo, who has shown no ([[Innocent Innuendo|real, intentional]]) affection ever. On top of that, Incubus wants Arle, though it's not clear whether it's for real reasons or just because he's a [[Horny Devil]].
* [[Luck-Based Mission]]: ''Puyo Puyo! 15th Anniversary'' adds many new battle modes. One of them is Non-Stop Fever, which is [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin]]. While it's appropriately awesome to be in [[Limit Break]] mode all the time, you're basically clearing the warning Puyo you start with and then hoping your opponent gets a Puyo they can't match before you do.
** In ''Puyo Puyo! 15th Anniversary'', there's a chance that all eight levels on any storymode will be different; a lottery is done to decide the games, which can be any (including No Offsetting, which is done to get fever, which is done to make
** Fever itself is this. If you have bad luck, you'll end up getting the wrong type of Puyo. If you're smart, you can build onto the chain, but if not, then you're pretty much screwed.
*
** Satan's evil plot of the day.
** The Lantern of the Stars and the Rock of the Moon in ''Puyo Puyo Fever 2''.
** The wishgranting medal of ''Puyo Puyo! 15th Anniversary''.
** Arle for ''Puyo Puyo 7''.
** {{spoiler|Ekoro}} in ''Puyo Puyo!! 20th Anniversary''.
*
* [[Mascot]]: Carbuncle, and Arle to an extent.
* [[Match Three Game]]: The "Match Four" varient.
* [[May-December Romance]]: Lemres (older) and Feli (younger), except Lemres doesn't reciprocate.
* [[Meaningful Name]]: Several of the cast. For example, Amitie is French for "friend", and Amitie is a friendly character in the ''Puyo Puyo Fever'' series.
* [[Million-to-One Chance]]: Klug discovers how to unlock the power of his book {{spoiler|
** [[Convenient Questing]]: All three playable characters were hunting for the items Lemres was delivering for their own uses
* [[Mini Game]]:
**
* [[Mismatched Eyes]]: Sig has one red eye and one blue eye
* [[Nerd Glasses]]: Klug
▲* [[Narcissist]]: Hohow Bird, maybe Raffine.
* [[Nice Job Breaking It, Hero]]: In ''Puyo Puyo!! 20th Anniversary'', Ringo basically tells an amnesiac Ekoro that people don't enjoy pranks, but really enjoy Puyo matches instead. {{spoiler|Bad idea. Ekoro soon gets bored with making people happy through Puyo matches one person at a time and tries to find a way to make [[Well-Intentioned Extremist|everyone happy on a large scale
* [[Nintendo Hard]]: Earlier games. The original ''[[Puyo Puyo]]'', which most
▲* [[Nerd Glasses]]: Klug; they make him creepier though when they flash.
* [[Noblewoman's Laugh]]: Raffine and Rulue have very impressive examples when they get high chain combos. Oshare also has his own that pops up sometimes.▼
▲* [[Nice Job Breaking It, Hero]]: In ''20th Anniversary'', Ringo basically tells an amnesiac Ekoro that people don't enjoy pranks, but really enjoy Puyo matches instead. {{spoiler|Bad idea. Ekoro soon gets bored with making people happy through Puyo matches one person at a time and tries to find a way to make [[Well-Intentioned Extremist|everyone happy on a large scale,]] eventually going as far as to try to possess Satan himself}}.
* [[No Name Given]]: The demon in Klug's book, despite becoming an [[Ensemble Darkhorse]] and having subtle history within ''Puyo Puyo Fever 2''. We don't even know what he originally looked like!▼
▲* [[Nintendo Hard]]: Earlier games. The original ''[[Puyo Puyo]]'', which most know as ''Mean Bean Machine'' or ''Kirby's Avalanche'', didn't have the offset rule.
* [[Not Himself]]: {{spoiler|Satan}} in ''Puyo Puyo~n''
▲* [[Noblewoman's Laugh]]: Raffine and Rulue have very impressive examples when they get high chain combos.
▲* [[No Name Given]]: The demon in Klug's book, despite becoming an [[Ensemble Darkhorse]] and having subtle history within ''Fever 2''. We don't even know what he originally looked like!
▲* [[Not Himself]]: {{spoiler|Satan in ''Puyo Puyo~n''}}, Klug in ''Fever 2'', and Arle in ''Puyo Puyo 7''.
* [[Odango]]: Rider's hair style
* [[Two-Teacher School|One
* [[Our Monsters Are Different]]:
** [[Our Mermaids Are Different]]: Seriri, although she seems to believe in the eat-the-mermaid myth.
** [[Our Monsters Are Weird]]: Satan and Ekoro aren't the only weird ones; you also have a gay skeleton, skeletons who drink tea, off-tune harpies, lovelorn minotaurs...
* [[People Puppets]]: Ekoro loves this trope. His victims are understandably frustrated.
* [[Pillar of Light]]: The strongest final chain finisher for Amitie and Arle in ''Puyo
* [[Power Floats]]: Strange Klug's strongest final chain finisher, Hydrangea<ref>See the Strange Klug on the left [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JxCZriQy_a4 here] for an example.</ref> has him floating inches off the ground.
* [[Pride Before a Fall]]: Klug looks unhappy about being sealed in a book. When he's released, he brushes it off like nothing happened. {{spoiler|He does learn from this though; he ends up giving the final item used to break the book's seal to Amitie rather than keep it}}.
* [[Pun-Based Title]]: The "Tsu" in ''[[Puyo Puyo]] Tsu'' means "master" and is also the number "two" spoken with a Japanese accent. Likewise, the "SUN" in ''[[Puyo Puyo]] SUN'' means "three" and also references the new Sun Puyo. Finally, "yon" means "four", hence, ''Puyo Puyo~n''.
* [[Red Eyes, Take Warning]]: Strange Klug's infamous for this. Satan and Sig subvert this, though - Satan WAS threatening once, but has since mellowed out. Sig's case is unemotioinal, even as Black Sig, and he takes everything in calmly and in stride.
* [[Redheaded Hero|Red Headed Heroine]]: Ringo.
* [[RPG Elements]]: ''[[Puyo Puyo]] BOX'' featured a Quest Mode in which you fight monsters Puyo-style; equipment would boost attack and defense, and heavier equipment would make your Puyo fall faster. Heck, the Quest Mode itself has examples,
** [[Heart Container]]: They're sprawled around the world and must be found.
** [[Broken Bridge]]: The bridge isn't broken, Schezo's sleeping on it!
** [[But Thou Must!]] [[Inverted Trope|Not]]: You cannot say "Yes" to Satan at the end of the game. Yeah, we probably DON'T want to know what he's asking.
* [[Satan]]: The bad guy of the first three games, and a regular character in the series. Tends to be the [[Final Boss]] (or at least one of them), as well as [[The Computer Is a Cheating Bastard|a cheater]]. Thankfully, he's ''not'' as threatening or evil as his namesake, and is instead a [[Stalker with a Crush]].▼
▲* [[Satan]]: The bad guy of the first three games, and a regular character in the series. Tends to be the [[Final Boss]] (or at least one of them), as well as [[The Computer Is a Cheating Bastard|a cheater]].
* [[Scary Shiny Glasses]]: Klug has a tendency to get this with a flat-toothed grin. Strange Klug cuts this in half by making only one lense flash whenever he's on screen.
* [[Schoolteachers]]: Ms. Accord.
Line 251 ⟶ 237:
** And yes, ''every'' problem. It doesn't matter if it's information to bodies, this is the rule to their world.
* [[She's Got Legs]]: Rulue.
* [[Shout-Out]]:
*
** In ''Puyo Pop Fever'' in English, Yu the ghost sometimes says [[Ghostbusters|"Who you gonna call?"]].
** In ''Puyo Puyo!! 20th Anniversary'', Ekoro has an unlockable human form. Selecting him in character select has him say "What are you going to do now?" [[Space Channel 5|Purge, another Sega villain voiced by Akira Ishida says the exact same thing
* [[Shrinking Violet]]: Rider.
* [[Soul Jar]]: Klug carries around a possessed book. Yes, [[Too Dumb to Live|bad things happen as a result]].
** And he continues to carry it, now with knowledge it ''IS'' possessed. As a result, ''Puyo Puyo 7'' and ''Puyo Puyo!! 20th Anniversary'' had appearances by Strange Klug as bonuses; '''[[Foreshadowing|Future]]''' [[Oh Crap|Klug]] in the Deka Fever for ''Puyo Puyo 7'' and as an unlockable character with his own voice clips in ''Puyo Puyo!! 20th Anniversary''.
*
* [[Spin-Off]]: ''[[Puyo Puyo]]'' is a spinoff of ''Madou Monogatari'', and has had a list of its own spinoffs that are as extensive, if not moreso, than the number of entries in its own series.
* [[Stalker with a Crush]]: Satan always comes up with some insane plan to get Arle to go out with him. Ever tried just walking up to her and asking, dude?
** Played creepily straight in ''Puyo Puyo 7''. He randomly appears at one point, entering with something along the lines of, "Did I hear my Arle just now?".
* [[Summoning Artifact|Summoning Artifacts]] [[Artifact of Doom|of Doom]]: The Bookmark Of The Sun, the Lamp of the Stars, and the Rock of the Moon {{spoiler|[[Aerith and Bob|AKA some moisturizing cream]]}}. They're used to unseal Klug's book. See [[Million-to-One Chance]] above.
* [[Super Senses]]: Ringo apparently has 20/4 vision.
{{quote|Ringo: "I can sight the Andromeda Galaxy in the daytime."}}
* [[Sweet Tooth]]: Lemres, who attempts to give candy to Amitie in ''Puyo Puyo Fever 2''.
* [[Technicolor Eyes]]: Unusual Ekoro's eyes are teal with ''pink heart pupils''.
* [[That Came Out Wrong]]: Every time poor Schezo tries to say something in the newer games, he blurts out "[[Catch Phrase|Be my desire!]]", and has to clarify just ''what'' he desires (hint: [[Innocent Innuendo|it's never sex]]).
* [[Theme Music Power-Up]]: Entering [[Limit Break|Fever/Henshin]] mode changes the music to a more up-beat song.
* [[Think Nothing of It]]: ...and Amitie realizes that she just lost out on a reward for finding the magic cane.
* [[Too Funny to Be Evil]]: Yes, we're never going to let ''Puyo Puyo SUN'' go, Satan.
* [[Tournament Arc]]: ''Puyo Puyo! 15th Anniversary'', which involves all the characters getting into one for a wish.
* [[Trademark Favorite Food]]: Carbuncle loves his curry.
* [[Unusual Euphemism]]: Ringo seems to have a couple of them... with math terminology.
* [[Villainous Harlequin]]: Doppelganger Arle to a T.
* [[Villains Out Shopping]]: Satan in his Hawaiian shirt trying to have fun and get a good tan by enlarging the sun in
** Ekoro's story in ''Puyo Puyo!! 20th Anniversary''
* [[What the Hell, Hero?]]: Lemres? ''Why'' did you give Klug a book with a demon inside, knowing he would find a way to exploit it? ''Why'' did you get lost in the desert when you have a flying broom? '''''Why''''' did you wish for the sea to turn into jelly!?
* [[White-Haired Pretty Boy]]: Schezo.
Line 282 ⟶ 268:
* [[Winged Humanoid]]: Harpy and Satan.
* [[You Gotta Have Blue Hair]]: Rulue, Sig and Rei.
* [[Your Costume Needs Work]]/[[Recognition Failure]]: In ''Puyo Puyo! 15th Anniversary'' during Satan's storymode, Klug
* [[Zettai Ryouiki]]: Raffine and Ringo.
